No, only shocking pink with lime green polkadot is acceptable for 'guys' in the K of SA.
If you want to know the price of such fabric per square metre, do let us know and we will rush to assist by any means possible. |

This guy asks a serious question and all he gets is a typically smart ass answer from Cleopatra. Cleopatra, you're not funny--just a burned out, bitter hag. Why don't you just go away. |

What makes you so sure "Julie" the attack post king/queen is a 'guy'?

Oh please.

Seems like our resident misogynists are on the prowl again. Listen, sweetie pie, if you're going to use s**ist language to criticise another poster for not answering a 'serious question', the least you could do is attempt to answer it yourself. Oh, and go and find the price per kilo of edible cardboard while you're at it. |

Kaspar Hauser,
This thread is going to be locked, because those watching it have neither read "1984" by Orson Welles, nor "Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury, or, if they have, found the messages of both books unapplicable to their own lives. That is not necessarily a personal attack, but an observation, dear moderators, since I understand that personal attacks are highly unfavorable on this board, and I have already been warned. No, in this message I will attack not one. Read carefully and see if you find any attack... it's not going to happen, because I refuse to attack! I hope, however, that refusals to attack are permitted, since "refusal" and especially with an "I" before the "refuse" sounds intolerably provoking and ill-willed.
No, I will not personally attack any person in my response to you, Kaspar Houser. I will only say, that your words were a light of goodness and truth shining in a world of dark words and black hearts. Your comments cut to the core of justice with simplicity. I applaud you, because I was beginning to feel like David Copperfield hitting against Mr. and Mrs. Murdstone in the most treacherous chapters of Charles Dickens's amazing novel.
Which comments I refer to, I will not say, since I am not sure I remember which thread you said them in. I say them here, because I happened to read this thread, and saw your name. Your name brought to mind a certain independent filmmaker, and I wonder if I have made the right connection?
Also, in addition to not personally attacking anyone, I would like to thank Cleopatra for the wonderful suggestion of pink polka dotted, or whatever that was. I will hunt down polka dots and neon, and whatever else it was that you mentioned, and I "do" (thank you, Cleopatra, for inspiring me to use "do" as you always "do")... where was I? Oh yes, I "DO" hope to make a good impression by wearing the local attire you recommended.
Kaspar Houser... I will dream tonight, with a softened heart thanks to you. |

Correction... It is 2am in my country, and hope I will be forgiven for typing filmmaker and actor Orson Welles instead of George Orwell, the rightful author of "1984".
Also, it is a lovely world we live in, where the last name of the author of "A Christmas Carol" and "Oliver Twist" and"Great Expectations" is a bleeped vulgarity. |

For women: BIG NO (except in a family/friend private/social gathering with other women only ). Be carefull with what is shown/written in the T-shirt!
For men: YES, anytime, anywhere, in private or public, as far as the T-shirt does not show any picture/writing of what is considered to be �illegal� according to the Saudi Laws. |

Let it be known that no you can't wear t-shirts, pants or any clothes for that matter as man - you must dress like Aladdin. As a woman you must belly dance all day long and grow your hair to your ankles so men can attach you to the back of their camel with it.
You should keep Julie, who you must have chased off by now, out of this, and make it huntformybrainhunt instead. The inane and obvious questions you keep asking are indications of a lack of intelligence or any ability to read or comprehend. Your queries are so bizarre that you lead one to assume that you may indeed be trolling. |
